Win A Get In Shape For Summer Puritan's Pride Gift Pack And Review

I received some wonderful health products from Puritan's Pride and me and the ladies at my boot-camp class got to try them out. Most were winners but one product got a lukewarm rating.

I love the Puritan's Pride's Aloe Vera Gel and got many uses out of this product. My cat scratched me after I was playing a game with her(time to cut her nails). I put on the aloe vera gel and it helped soothe the itching and the pain from her marks. The aloe vera was also used on my hair, I found it to be the perfect product for twisting and wearing my hair up. It is also can be used as a moisturizer but I found it not to be enough for my skin in the winter months but perfect for summer.

I also loved the Vitamin E lip balm for my cuticles and lips which took a beating this winter. I applied it to my lips and cuticles before going to bed. It is a great product and I say it gets a definite thumbs up.

The next product I didn't try but I gave it to one of the ladies in my boot-camp class. It was the Super Citrimax® Garcinia Cambogia. Garcina Cambogia is a small fruit called tamarind and it is found in Indonesia. The extract found in the rind of the fruit can aid in weight loss by decreasing one's appetite and increasing fat burning in the body. Kim who took the product loved it at first because she stated it does decrease your appetite but she stopped taking it after two weeks because it gave her a lot of gas. This product gets a thumbs up also because it could work for the right person.

The last product is Puritan's Pride's Green Coffee Bean Extract. Green Coffee is coffee beans that have not been roasted and it has been found that it might affect the blood vessels which can help lower blood pressure. In Addition, the chlorogenic acid found in the green coffee may affect blood sugar and one's metabolism. I'm not sure about this product because I took it but I was on the South Beach diet at the same time. I'm waiting back from another lady from my class, I gave her the product but she hasn't been back to class so I will update this post later.

One winner will receive a gift pack of all five of these products. Only the first entry is mandatory; bonus entries can increase your chance to win. Giveaway ends at midnight on 6/16/2014. It is open to US residents ages 18 and older and good luck to all.

I don't need to loose weight. I first got in to fitness to get in shape and lose some weight and get in to shape years ago, but I am happy with my weight now. It has become more of a lifestyle now, I look forward to my workouts and make it a point to be more active, especially in the warmer months :)

I have never purchased their products, but would like to the chance to try them!

I do need to lose a little bit of post-baby weight still, but I'm bit wary of products that promote that they do that. If you have good results, I trust you, though! And love vitamin E...such deep hydration!
